Words of wisdom for you –

Avoid wearing transparent and clingy clothes on Holi because you are sure to get wet and feel uncomfortable.

Best Fabric For Holi:

Undoubtedly, it is cotton. It keeps you cool while enjoying the outdoor fun that the festival brings. For Holi, you can dress up in a vibrant cotton dress that is rich in hues and prints to add that dash of vivaciousness to your festive celebrations. The Holi outfit of Alia Bhatt in ‘2 States’ is a perfect example of flaunting the Indo-western look or you can don a vibrant skirt with flares and still look dazzling. But if you want to minimize the damage to your skin due to the chemicals and tan, then without a second thought go ahead and pair linen pants with a short kurta or a palazzo with a long kurta. Make sure you pick a top that has full sleeves.

Chikankari and Holi?

Ah, that is making an impressive statement. A white chikan kurti when paired with jeans looks fabulous and so perfect for college Holi functions, doesn’t it? Ask Dia Mirza.

You think I am going to miss out on a Patiala Salwar Suit for Holi festival dress code? Certainly no.

And then there is a colorful Tank top and ethnic skirt. A trendy Holi outfit, with a touch of tradition. In doing so, accessorize this dress with colorful bangles and funky jewelry.

Ethnic Wear For Holi:

If ethnic wear is your calling for festive occasions then go the Bollywood way by opting for an all-white ensemble a la Rekha in the song ‘Rang Barse’. It is an evergreen trend that will make sure that you look your stylish best!

And what is that? Wear a crisp white chikankari kurta with the staple leggings. Want some more twist? Pair the white kurta and leggings with a colorful bandhani print dupatta.

Accessories For Holi:

Holi fashion demands a twist. You have to get messy with colors and water at the same time look your stylish best. And accessories to wear on Holi have lots to do to help you nail the look. Here’s how:

Caps and Bandanas: Take your family and friends by surprise when you wear the best headgear (either a stylish cap or a printed bandana) with your attire this Holi. It is a hep way to style your outfit. Plus you end up protecting your hair as well.

Sunglasses: You can’t go color blind on Holi but you can certainly add that extra glamour to your attire by wearing sunglasses. Look a star at your Holi party by wearing one of those awesome sunnies. Going for the classic aviators will certainly help you steal the limelight. Also, when you wear sunglasses while playing with color on Holi, it makes sure your eyes are protected from the harsh chemicals.

Flip flops: For the playful festival, are you going to wear one of those fancy sandals or pumps? Don’t do that. Holi is that one festival which gives you a chance to wear and show off your footwear for Holi. So do that by wearing flip-flops in public. Just pair them with your funky clothes and complete your Holi outfit. Other footwear options include sneakers, floaters, ballerinas, loafers or simple slippers.

Denim Shorts: Supposing you don’t want to go the traditional way this Holi. Be a smartie by wearing denim shorts and a nice white top or a t-shirt. Complete this look by wearing a bandana and flip flops.

Hairdo for Holi:

Shield and protect!

This will always be the mantra for your hair on the occasion of Holi. To do so, moisturize your hair with coconut oil beforehand. Bring out the hairstylist in you and go for a braided bun or a double French braid tied into a high ponytail. It is the best and most stylish way to save your tresses from the onslaught of the colors and chemicals.

Nail Art for Holi:

To shield your nails from Holi colors, paint them with some bright hues. They can be bold and contrasting colors or a nail art design inspired by Holi. Add the splash of colors to your nails by using some vibrant shades rather than let the chemical colors play havoc with your manicure.
